......i better have a look its getting to cold not to have anti freez :-/

And the V6 engines don't like plain water without the antifreeze.  Remember, 'antifreeze' serves more purposes than just reducing freeze temps.  Its an anti corrosive additive as well as a 'water wetter' to allow better cooling transfer, to name just 2...  The bonus you may well have in your leaky machine is that its filled and refilled with soft Scots water rather than the limescale inducing stuff thats the norm in some other parts of the country.....  ;)

come down to Devon mate, lovely soft water here  :y
